Snowmen Staying in the Breakfast Room

I decided while taking down Christmas that I wanted to leave the snowmen in the breakfast room. I hope that decision had NOTHING to do with this ICY BLAST we are all experiencing!! There are lots of pictures so I will be kinda quiet and just let you look. As many of you know, Joe made me this hutch several years ago and I love it.

 I even put some snowmen pictures in here too.

 I made the arrangement on the sled several years ago too.

 Most of the snowmen were bought at craft fairs over the years and are hand made.

 I am hoping one day my daugter might like this collection.

 

Thanks for visiting! I am working on some more WINTER vignettes. I will be sharing this here:

Christmas in the Guest Room!

I had my sister here for a week over Thanksgiving so I decorated the guest room for her. I wanted it to feel like I made it SPECIAL for her. It all started with the picture over the bed. I found it at Kirklands and knew that it would be perfect in this room because it has blue in it! Just adding some festive red accents was easy! Here is the view as you walk in the room.

 The red snowflake pillow came for the dollar store!!! I just love it and think it is perfect in here!

 I added red birds and berries to the 2 arrangements over the bed.

 I just got this adorable sled yesterday, so my sister just missed it but it JUMPED into my cart at TJMaxx!!! I love the flocking and the fake FUR!!!

 I added a swag over the picture, with iced branches and red berry stems too.

 This is what was on the nightstand at first, before I found the sled!

 I just added some plaid ribbon as tie backs to the curtains.

 A red runner over the quilt on the hope chest and a red pottery santa.

A tiny tree on the dresser and red ribbon on the lamp shade. The Santa sits on a barrel and I added some little elements to him too:)

 This was a little welcome gift for my sister, a plate that came with the stand too.

 This Santa with his plaid pants and blue jacket fits right in too!

 This big guy came from a neighbor who was moving and knew I collected santas!I may gussy him up a bit too:)

 Thanks so much for visiting, I wish you could all come and REALLY visit. I would welcome you with open arms! I am partying with:

Christmas in the Breakfast Room

When I start to do my Christmas decorating, I always start with the breakfast room and kitchen since I spend so much time in there. Having it all decorated (for EVERY season) always makes me happy! This year we have the hutch that Joe made in here and I had fun decorating it!!! As you can see I have all my snowmen in here. They can stay all winter! I use batts of cotton for the "snow".

 I made this arrangement on the sled, last year.

 I did my 2 shelving units too. They are actually plant stands that I have had for YEARS!!! The shelves are tiles.

 I sat a little snowman in the basket and hung snowman pictures in here too.

 Some details of the hutch.

 See Mrs. Snow lady with her FUR stole? She is so precious:)

 The tiny deer are made of sticks and were bought at a craft fair years ago.

 Almost all of my snowmen were purchased at craft fairs over the years. I LOVE hand made items. I then added things like the little shovel and "deer crossing" sign.

 The snowman lamp on the top shelf and the snowman lantern on the next shelf give off a soft glow at night.

 The snowman on the top in the middle is made from a fence post!

 And he has a red bird on his hat.

 The tree is also in here, it is the ONLY spot in the house that it will fit. I hope you saw my post yesterday, I shared the tree. Here is the link if you missed it: http://designsbypinky.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-tree-is-up.html

 Let's turn on the lights!

 I took this right after I finished decorating the tree, before we put the table back.

 Hope you have enjoyed this little tour. There is LOTS more to share so PLEASE check back each day. I am MOST grateful to my loyal followers, and love you all!!! XO, Pinky
